Oh, Eli!

My original purpose for this blog was to chronicle all of the everyday happenings in our family's life. So, I thought I would post a few cute things Eli has said in the past couple of days before I forget them.

1. While we were playing in front of the Christmas tree, he grabbed a Little People plastic Santa and looked at it as though he was deep in thought. Then all of a sudden he says, "Mommy, we can call Sam 'Samma Claus.'" I thought it was so cute and very clever for a three year old.

2. Yesterday he comes up to me and says, "Mommy, I want to watch that movie with the brown dinosaur." Having no idea what he is talking about, I ask,"What movie?" He says, "You know, A.T." Then I realized he was talking about E.T. He saw a preview for it the day before. Now everytime the tv is on he asks to watch A.T.

3. We were looking at pictures of the half marathon Nick and ran Sunday. He says, "Mommy, that's you and daddy running. Did you smoke him?" I wished I could say I did, but I was laughing too hard, and I most certainly did not "smoke him."

4. masketti = spaghetti
bazanya = lasagna
maddition = magician
buzz bunny = Bugs Bunny
droopiter = Jupiter
Jesus isn't simply Jesus; he's "Dear Jesus" because that is how he starts his prayers

Oh, Eli!
